Southern Fried Legend on the Way: Spinx Coming to Fletcher, NC

Big news, y’all—Spinx, the South Carolina-born convenience store chain known far and wide for its Legendary Southern Fried Chicken, is about to open its doors in Fletcher, North Carolina, perfectly positioned between Asheville and Hendersonville. For travelers headed down I-26 or locals looking for a next-level gas station experience, this is huge.


A Little Backstory: Spinx Roots & Growth

  • Founded in 1972 by Stewart Spinks, who took over a failing Shell station in Greenville, SC and turned it into a convenience-focused enterprise with big plans.

  • Over the decades, Spinx grew from one station to over 80 convenience stores and 50 car washes across South Carolina and Western North Carolina.

  • The name “Spinx” is a playful twist on the founder’s last name (“Spinks”) and the mythical Sphinx—and you’ll find fried chicken, chicken biscuits, and other made-from-scratch favorites at many locations.

  • They’ve continued upgrading along the way—adding in-store kitchens, car washes, rewards programs (Spinx Xtras), and even launching a Market & Eatery concept with artisanal foods.

  • Gas, snacks, good prices—but done right. Expect the full Spinx experience: clean, convenient, and friendly.

  • Truck-friendly setup—complete with an 18-wheeler truck stop area. A big win for long-haul drivers and road trippers alike.
